Look Jim, I get what you are saying. Those that have worked hard deserve a break every now and then and people who are deadbeats need to understand they can't just sail through life depending on everyone else. I do not disagree with that.
What I am saying is that this should not apply to car insurance. Just cause someone (regardless of race) does not have a degree it does not mean that they will have more accidents. Period. But please, if you have evidence that proves otherwise I would like to see it. Geico has not been able to provide it, so I assume it does not exist. However, I do believe that there is evidence (I stress believe b/c I do not have it) that lawyers, doctors, etc actually have more accidents than other lower paying jobs. I think that you should look at facts instead of going on what you think is true.
